We're thrilled to announce the next section of our Privacy Activism resources! 🎉

📑 The Data Protection Authority Directory is a new tool to help you find the main consumer privacy law in your region, and the authority mandated to enforce that law.

We sincerely hope our DPA Directory will be a useful tool for building your knowledge about what privacy protections you're entitled to. Paired with our resource on reporting privacy violations in our Privacy Activist Toolbox, you can take a stand against violations of your privacy rights, and make a significant impact benefiting both you and your community.

A bill for the people? We nearly forgot the government could do that 👀

The US government regularly gets around the 4th Amendment by buying data from “third-party” data brokers, to invade your privacy with no oversight.

Why this is legal? We have no idea, but Rep. Thomas Massie (KY) just introduced the Surveillance Accountability Act (with help drafting from Naomi Brockwell!) which closes this loophole.

The bill would mandate warrants for all surveillance, including a ban on invasive AI and facial recognition mass surveillance in public spaces 💪
